Paisano

Last night we went with friends to a Restaurant far away from our home.

It was an Italian Restaurant "Paisano's" in Richmond Il. About 40 miles from our house.

First we went to a friends house in Spring Hill. And such a beautiful house--no photos.

Then drove to the restaurant.

The owner Phil came to our table and talked for awhile. Not too long but long enough
to be friendly.

He started the restaurant in one small storefront and soon moved into 3 more stores.

The insides all flow together and give it a special Italian atmosphere.

And we saw his nice black car parked right in front where the Valets can keep an eye on it.

It was a Bentley coupe...just beautiful....He only brings it when the Valets are working.

Anyway, I usually get some menu item that is simple like spaghetti and meatballs or lasagna.





But read about a breaded Pork Chop dish and just tried to experiment.

Sure enough, everyone's dishes were great. Mine was the best.

So here are a few photos of my pork chops and a mussel dish and the lasagna.P
